Lacking for price!
The sleeping area was large, as well as the bathroom, which was nice. The bed and pillows were comfortable. But, the floor felt a little dirty. the TV was non existent, and the breakfast consisted of a pkg muffin, apple juice, piece of fruit, cold cereal in its container with only Vit whole milk. We feel it was over priced because of this. Other accommodations had better breakfasts for the same price, just farther away from the Caverns.

Not impressed.
I travel a lot, stay in a lot of hotels, and this place was not impressive. Good things: close to Caverns, beds were reasonably comfortable, AC and fridge and microwave all worked well. Bad things: hair left on walls of bathroom and shower, shower curtain torn, no plug in sink, big rip in one chair, strip of duct tape between tiles and carpet did little to protect bare feet from the tacks / staples, security chain on door dangling loosely from one flimsy screw, breakfast a total joke (packaged muffins and cold cereal), and when our key cards stopped working on second day, person at front desk had no idea how to solve the problem. I have no idea how this hotel has such a high rating. Note: If you stay in White's City, come prepared. Grocery store across the street is poorly stocked (though gift shop is extensive) and cafe closes at 3:00pm.

The only issue was that we arrived at noon and asked to check in early knowing that the place was less than half occupied (there were 2 cars in the parking lot and I’m sure 1 belonged to the front desk girl. The lady at the desk said to come back at 2pm. Also the tv didn’t work but not a big deal.
